The exercise:
Before we get to the prompt for today, I just wanted to mention that the wonderful Laura Jayne has returned and suggest that you all go welcome her back with some of your brilliant writing.
The prompt for you here, courtesy of g2, is: mad scientist.
Mine:
The beakers aren't bubbling.
The numbers are troubling.
The monkey's on vacation.
I'm full of trepidation!
The monsters are not lurking.
Nothing seems to be working!
Instead of feeling sadly...
I think I'll behave madly!
